2025 Week 6 Resumes For The Top 10 Ranked FCS Teams

2024 NDSU Football Schedule

Zachary Lucy/NDSU Athletics

Every week after the Stats Perform FCS Top 25 media poll is released, we will publish the resumes for the Top 10-ranked teams.

The resumes paint the picture of what the playoff committee looks at before Selection Sunday (although watching the games gives the clearest picture). Resumes include overall record, record against FCS opponents, Division 1 wins, Non-D1 wins, FBS wins and losses, ranked wins at the time of the game, wins against teams currently ranked in the Top 25, strength of schedule, Massey ratings, and past opponents’ record against other teams.

Resumes For Top 10 Teams

Teams 1-10 are via this week’s Stats Perform Media Poll.

“Then-Ranked Wins” are wins against ranked teams at the time of the game using the media poll.

“Currently-Ranked Wins” are wins against teams currently ranked in the media and coaches polls. Media poll rankings will be listed first.

Strength of schedule (SOS) is via Massey, is through current games played only, and doesn’t factor in future games.

“Past opponents’ record vs. *other* teams” is the combined record of your previous opponents without including your own record. As an example, if a 3-0 team has beaten three teams that are now 0-3, the past opponents’ record vs. other teams is 0-6 (three teams that are 0-2 vs. other opponents).
